STARTING AND CHARGING - BATTERY 20-9

BATTERY

USE AND MAINTENANCE

1 . DC power supply must be used for battery charging. But power plant generates
AC, which should be transformed into DC before charging.
WARNING
(a) Rectifier.
(b) Controllable silicone voltage regulation charger.

2 . Charge precautions
(a) Battery should be charged in a dry and ventilated room with indoor temperature at 5
to 40 degree Celsius.
(b) Battery can not be placed on another one. Neither should it be placed on the ground
directly. It should be put on the wooden support, and cannot be placed with alkaline
battery or other chemicals.
(c) Charging field should be far away from fire and heat. 20
(d) Liquid temperature should not exceed 45 degree Celsius. Otherwise cooling measures
should be taken (by reducing filling current or stopping charge or being cooled down
in water tank).
3 . Charge connection.

(a) The positive pole of charger is to be connected with the positive pole of battery, while
the negative pole of charger should be connected with the negative pole of battery.
Never connect them reversely.
(b) Charge of most batteries may be determined based on the size of motor power.
Connection for charge must be firm.
4 . Charging modes

(a) Constant current charge, constant voltage charge and quick charge.
5 . After charging, check whether the battery capacity is restored to standard with
the voltage mode or indicator display state.
